Ah! A Giallo 355 Spyder last week near the dealership. Also, we seem to have a few Teslas and Fiskers poking around I see weekly or semiweekly.

Ahh yes. The 355. The first Ferrari I ever drove in and the last truly awesome Ferrari (well I guess the 550 is technically the last).
Agreed. Love the 355s. And 456s. Ferraris of that era just seem...better to me somehow. Couldn't tell ya why...

Wha? How?!
If I could, I would have a stick Rosso Corsa with tan interior, and a Giallo with the F1 semi-auto just to see what it was like. Both Berlinettas.
I really don't like the Spyders.

IIRC, I posted something a long time ago about my first experience in a Ferrari. I was just a little kid and a family friend had a 355 and took me around the city in it. A very nostalgic experience for me.
Then when I got older I met up with* this same person who took me around in that same 355 when I was younger and I got to drive it this time.

If I ever got a Ferrari it would be Rosso Corsa 355 Berlinetta, also the tan interior. No F1 paddlebox, though. That's blasphemous.

When has a soft top ever looked good? The 355 GTS is a much more pretty open top.
Almost every car is better without a top. They just don't look that grand when the top is up.
I keep wondering if all those QP's I see here are really just the same one and it gets driven a lot...they have all been the same colour.

Well, that is why I want 2! Virtue and vice!

Please make those your vanity plates.
I always wanted AZZKIKR after i saw it in Con Air. Too bad no DMV would ever issue that.

Have you made a decision on the job front yet?[/quote]
lol...
I kept my old job, took a pay raise. Also made use of the shop today to get my rear sway bar in....:D
All in all not bad...lol
Also saw a new SRT Viper, in that classic Viper Blue with white stripe paint job. It has a "T" plate that I've never seen before, it says "trailered vehicle"....I guess its just a show car?
Lambo Murcielago. All the expensive toys are coming out as the weather gets good.

Alfa Romeo 8C Spider and Ferrari 250 California Spider (SWB, covered headlamps).
Perhaps the two best looking cars ever made.
By the way, I've been in Switzerland this week and (besides many other assorted exotic and interesting machinery) I've seen more Kizashis than ever! They really like it!
There were like... you know... four in the whole country!
At least!

A vacay?
I saw a Tesla Model S today. Cool looking car, it's just expensive for what it is. It was in this burnt brown/red color.
However, I'd much rather buy a Model S over a Fisker Karma, with the shape the company is in right now.
